I tried everything, extra fiber, stool softener etc. . Went to dr she told me milk of magnesium and that I needed something to stimulate my bowels and that would do it. Boy was she right!!! All good now! Still use it every few days but it definitely works!

I do not have the recipe... but if you know someone who works in a Long Term Care home, ask them about "Get up and Go" cookies. I know they have prune juice, bran, raisins, flax and a few other things... apparently served warm they work VERY quickly (hence the name). They often made them in the Dementia unit I did a placement in, they were a huge hit.

I also will eat a salad made with quinoa, corn, spinach, a natural dressing (olive oil, lime, honey, garlic) a few nuts of some sort and wash it down with seltzer water. Quinoa is a pregnant girls best friend - complete protein source WITH TONS of fibre :)
